House demolition in Ogun State, elderly victims speak out: I carried block for my family to survive

August 2020, last week Thursday. Victims of house demolition shared their touching stories, on their experience as a result of house demolition and road expansion in Ogun State. Residents of Ikija in the same environs as the tourist attraction Olumo Rock, shared their stories on how being owed compensation for their demolished houses and shops has affected them.

“The suffering is too much, like myself now. I don’t have a house, neither do I have a shop any longer. I went to carry block on my head for two thousand naira a day for my family to survive; I sleep in the church. “I lost my son, my Akanbi, my heart. I was overthinking because of this. I have no house, I have no shop any longer no means to survive. Please the governor should meet with us. I don’t have anything.”The organisation members were led by the Founder activist Aduke, who represent the victims on the issue.
